    Really need a date soon. Stuff at work is going to be insane in June and I'll probably be working 50-70 hour weeks. We're at the end of a major release and I'm in charge of the last milestone of that, and on top of that it just got sprung on me that we bid a proposal I'm supposed to be the lead on that we're expecting to get awarded in late May. Sometimes I feel like my management isn't aware that I'm not two people.

    I'm picking the 6/10 and goingwith that. Cant wait any longer. By the time I get back from Utah it'll be too late to reserve a vacation date. There's a few people from northern Indiana that are going. If anyone (from this thread) wants to go same weekend, join us. Or if the entire group wants in on that weekend, feel free to join in. Probably not for anyone afraid to scratch their sliders though...planning Shumaker Ridge and Zachariah.

    If I get to do 2 weeks later, it will be saturday only. May miss the campfire girls run....

    He wants an AT, I think.

    Of course, I'll say Grabber AT2. They've served me well and can air down to 12 or 10 psi and still hold bead at LBL :anonymous:
    Still not sure how that happened :drunk:

    How wide are your rims!? I have 295s on my 7" wide wheels NO problems whatsoever. I'd put 315s on them today if I could. Even if your rim is 5" wide, I dont see 255/85/16s not working. Adjust your air pressure correctly and tell that "rep" to walk.

    FYI look at the Mastercraft Courser CXT. Guy I know just put them on his 4Runner in 255/85/16. They seem like a great tire. Basically a cheaper Cooper

    Ripped off all four mudflaps. Scratches all down both sides 6112’s up front on 3rd notch 5100’s in back with Toytech 1” block Skids & sliders from SOS Concepts I got rid of the 1” block and put on Wheelers 1 1/2” progressive AAL. SPC UCA. Be sure your standing on the drivers side when reading the instructions! I swapped sides so many times that I can swap UCA’s in 15 minutes. I put in the 3/4” spacer to eliminate the Taco Lean, and just got my 4th alignment. Traded the OEM rims for 17” Sport rims and a bora bora 1” spacer. I got my Firestone 285/70/17 MT2’s. Pelfreybilt gas tank skid and hi-lift jack should be here Friday. Looking at bumpers, but I think they will wait for next year. So far I’m happy with my build. I’ve done it all myself, leading to a lot of cussing and frustration, but it’s all mine.
    I have stock OR rims. This has turned into more than I was ready for. I’ve looked at the CXT’s but what I’m going to make work are Firestone’s 285/75/16 MT’2.
    JBA UCA fixed me on the skinnies,, and fat,, and their UCA’s,, by saying on their website that I’d need aftermarket rims with 4.5” backspacing with either freakin size,,,,, 255/85 OR 285/75

    HUH?
